I know of some things I've heard from mutual "friends" that make me dislike him...no need to go into detail but unless he has a quote from someone, I don't put much faith in what he says in recruiting

JHoke definitely is going down that road. All his "per me" " you heard it reported here first" shitty prediction percentages and leaking out information that is private.

Just went and looked at the UGA recruiting thread for the first time since Colbert's announcement. That shite is hilarious.

Not surprising considering the type player Ellis Johnson likes on defense. Williams has a Rashaan Evans skillset

I think it was on here (could be real life ) where someone said they knew him in high school and he was really nice and reserved.

I have heard things about JHoke and his recruiting news tactics that trouble me. Him and Allie Davidson don't have great relationships with the AD from my understanding

My point was more that JHoke seems to have changed a lot from how he used to be

No need to respond to the classless. And anybody that calls me unprofessional has no class. Zero class whatsoever. Print that. I wouldn't get all bent out of shape though. There are looneys in every fan base. In person, I've never had a single bad experience with a UGA fan. Not one. Most people you meet are pretty cool. The funny thing is, I've never said a bad word about UGA on this site (or any school). Well, not anything anybody with a brain would consider bad. People just see things through a keyhole. Well, not normal people -- but some people. You know, people that live with their parents. Anyway, it's cool. Some of them are mad about some of these commitments .... so I'd cut them some slack.
Remember out Georgia friends shite-talking Keith Niebuhr? Well, apparently it goes on within the Georgia 247 boards as well. That fanbase is just terrible. Damn shame Dawgrant had to merge with this site.

BTW, this post is from Keith Niebuhr.

Calling out KN seems ridiculous. JHoke and JLEE fair but KN is pretty tame

Reading DawgRant just reinforces everything I associated with UGA fans when I moved to Atlanta. Just backwards man.

Could be wrong but I don't recall him doing this since he took over recruiting at AUR

Justin Hoke comes across as cocky and arrogant to me.
He has too much Hoover in him.

For the Hooverites on the board that was just a joke stemming from my Prattville background.

That's what sucks. Allie is a very good writer when given the opportunity on stories. I see his arrogance rubbing off on her though and it ain't too purdy.

Not a fan of hers. I can see she can write but football writing is just not her thing in my mind. Not a fan of the content/what she views as important


Especially on an issue like this, you aren't going to get a straight answer and will have to read between the lines. What I could gather from a conversation about a month ago on this topic is that their method of getting in contact with recruits, how they dig up information, and overall "journalistic integrity" is questionable.


I had a friend who looked into getting into the field and talked with Derek Tyson from ESPN. He emphasized how big a deal morals are for a girl, especially in recruiting, where pushing the lines can get you a great story

Funny thing there is a few months ago Allie made a posted on twitter about being professional and that she had not done anything questionable to get stories with recruits. I don't know one way or the other. Just remembering her tweets on the matter.

I didn't get the feeling that she did anything unprofessional. Vibe I did get was that JHoke wouldn't be above putting her in that situation


Check your twitterz E I explained some of that situation
